MintyBoost has a v3 for latest iPhone devices

oops, my v2 boards need a hack

The reason?

We did some experimenting and determined that in fact the different voltages/resistances did effect the charging rates!

Using the 2.8V & 2.0V setup resulted in a 1 Amp charge rate and the 2.0V & 2.0V setup resulted in a 500mA charge rate.
